I never tried any of their products so it was also the opportunity for me to learn about the brand and their legendary range of moisturizers…

A little history…

It all started with a man, when Dr. Max Huber (a NASA Astrophysicist) suffered burns because of an experiment gone awry and dedicated the rest of his career to finding a cure for scars. He lived near the ocean and noticed how sailors had sun damaged skin everywhere except for their arms. Indeed, they wrapped their arms in sea kelp.

6.000 experiments and 12 years of studying sea kelp locked in his garage finally led to the creation of a lifetime : a wonderful potion called “The Miracle Broth”. Born out of his love for the ocean he then called his first cream Crème de La Mer.

You all know how I love stories, but I know how boring it must be for some of you… That’s why I shortened it as much as I could but feel free to ask for more details via Instagram or mail!

The Moisturizing Cool Gel Cream

The new Moisturizing Cool Gel Cream joins an already diversified range of 4 other moisturizing creams by La Mer. The textures vary but an essential component remains the same; the Miracle Broth.

This cooling gel has a unique refreshing formula. Indeed, this formula contains a new technology of micro oil in the gel. The capsule is a combination of millions of micro-droplet resulting from the Miracle Broth and from a moisturizing heart of cream which are wrapped to create this capsule gel. Together, they free this explosion of freshness and intense hydration.

When you try it, it really feels like a splash of fresh water! I have only been using it for a few days now but I like how my skin feels more balanced already. I had some redness because of all the changes of temperatures and well… they’re gone. So, so far so good!

Another point I appreciate is that you can use most of their products within 24 months which is huge compared to other brands I know. I value this a lot because I’m always trying new products (every months) and when I really liked something I want to be able to use it again before it’s expired.

I recommend using it after a hot bath, spa, or shower you will only appreciate it more!
